On a hill above an English village lives a lonely old farmer, his wife gone and children grown. When war reaches England, the villagers black out every window and remove all their lights to hide from enemy planes. The farmer gathers the discarded bulbs and stores them in his barn. On Christmas Eve, as bombers thunder overhead, he transforms his loneliness into hope, arranging strings of lights on his hillside to spell a message of peace for all the village to see.
- A tender WWII Christmas tale about turning loneliness into hope through simple lights
- Dedicated to 'refugees everywhere'—a timely message of peace for families
- Perfect read-aloud for the Christmas season with lush illustrations
- Teaches children about service, generosity, and finding purpose
“Wishing to do his part, the old farmer slowly pushed his wooden cart through the narrow streets of the village to gather up lights, feeling that in doing so, he was gathering up old friends.”
Perfect for a parent or grandparent looking for a heartwarming, gentle Christmas picture book about hope, kindness, and light overcoming darkness to read aloud with young children.
